Project S14 2JZ

V8 240sx? Sure! If either the chassis OR the engine is non-Nissan (i.e. SR20 in an RX-7 or LS1 in a 240sx), we've done it.

1. Finished Bracket2. Welded Bracket In3. Painted Trunk In Primer4. Painted Trunk In Black

The fuel cell bracket is now complete it's welded and bolted into the car so I don’t think it’s going anywhere. Also painted the trunk and plan on making a custom wall around the trunk will have pics when I get there....I also picked up my Q45 front rotor to test it out on the back of my car with the brembo calipers I picked up awhile back. I also have a shot of the body harness getting ready to make its move to inside the car & to get shortened.

The Back came out kinda bad at the bottom of the trunk, but thats ok you cant see it and your not going to see any of the bracket after we finish making the mount cover for the cell.

Today spent a bit of time outside looming the harness inside the car + making the panel for the fuses which i got to clean up a bit more so everything sits right...it was more a test fit before the final product. I also repainted my engine bay since it was looking all ugly & i have a before and after shot. The first shot has some light sanding before i painted

anyways onto the pics!

questions! :

so with the wiring.... you used diagrams and traced only the wires you needed right?

once your engine harness is done, and connected to the ecu, you trace one wire and bring fire from the battery... is that it... ( essentially )

With the wiring I looked at the body harness checked to see what wires I needed. once that was done I labeled the wires I needed for example 1 wire was a1 another wire was a2, then say another wire that connected to another thing was b1 and b2 or if you really want you can use the 1,2,3,4,5 system. Then once all that is done cut the wires that need to be cut, then move forward with bringing the wires inside the cabin area and trim them to length + rejoin
